Das Séparée
Private event room that can be booked by the hour and hosts a five-part rope bondage course series. The series runs from an introduction to shibari to suspension basics and is taught by a workshop leader from Querverbindungen.
Das Séparée is a privately run BDSM room in Vienna’s 5th district (Margareten) that can be rented by the hour. Besides private bookings it hosts adult events and workshops, and its rope program is a course series in rope bondage with a focus on shibari. The courses are meant for beginners on either end of the rope, whether they are completely new or have taken first steps. Participants must be willing both to tie and to be tied.
The series has five parts. The first is an introduction, with anatomy and safety as core topics. The second covers leg ties, the futomomo and the cross-legged agura. The third is the takate kote, a basic upper-body pattern with many variations, taught with safety and anatomy notes and two ropes. The fourth turns to decorative ties, and the fifth introduces suspension: safety, materials, hard points and upline handling. According to the venue, the first parts can also be booked together as a nine-hour intensive.
The courses are taught by a workshop leader from the Vienna rope association Querverbindungen. The venue says his teaching goes beyond how to tie: physical and emotional safety and anatomy (nerves, circulation, first aid and aftercare) are a fixed part of each course. Rope, safety shears, mats and cushions are provided, so participants only need comfortable clothing. Rope prepared by the teacher can be bought afterwards.
Prices on the venue’s page conflict (as of November 2026): the individual three-hour courses dated in November 2026 are listed at €89 per person, while the page’s FAQ gives about three hours and €75 per person for a standard course. The nine-hour intensive costs €279 per person, including a small buffet. The room is near the Johann-Strauß-Gasse tram stop.
